Seriously? Al Jazeera has one of the most unbiased reporting reputations in the world. Is America really that afraid of anything remotely middle eastern?
It's not America taking the action, but rather for-profit enterprises, assessing the possible impact of carrying that channel on their future revenues. If the public wants access to television networks to be dictated by public principles, then the public has to build and maintain their own networks for that. If they're going to leave it up to commercial enterprises, then they have to defer to business decisions that are best for the business, at least some of the time, even if that means that they have to get rid of a channel that if they continued to carry it may prompt more of their customers to punish them than reward them.

Maybe those dropping AJI know something you don't????? AJI is no different that Fox, MSNBC or any other station that leans left or right, they just happen to lean pro-MB and has it's roots in the MB.
As far as the other news that they report, they are good at it.

Al Jazeera America is Pro-MB? No it's not. Where do you get that idea?

Based on the scared choices of their customers. I fault not a company trying to do business. I fault the xenophobic customer base.
Al Jazeera tells stories of what's really going on in the ME and we can't have that on US airwaves, can we ?
Within days of the Benghazi incident Al Jazeera was reporting planned terrorist attack.

All right, that's just a completely retarded thing to say. No, Al Jazeera is not pro-Muslim Brotherhood (which is an Egypt only organization) nor does it "have it's roots in the MB". How misinformed can you be? Al Jazeera is run by the government of Qatar and is based on the BBC model.
